I have 11 new striper flats patterns designed on paper to realize in 3D this winter. They came to me over the last 3 years of stalking the flats from Monomoy to Acklins. I might even post a few of them
Now that the fat lady has sung the vise will be getting a workout. Juro, would like to talk with you about the possibility and proceedure for doing a couple of step by step ties over the winter.

GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN :smokin:
Sat down at the bench for the first time this weekend. Tying season has started.
Although I have a rod ready and the boats is winterized, I feel that I still might wet a line. Weather is still mild and the water temps are still high. Still think ( if you are lucky) some fish will move through.
At the beginning stages of tying I'm replishing the flies lost by clients and bluefish. I call it production tying. Later on I'll tie new patterns that interest me. Lastly I go over my notes I've made throughout the season, and see if I can design/ or re-design something new.
Just put all my tying stuff into storage bins beside my tying desk with sketched out new recipes on the drawing board. Man how the heck did I ever get that much material
It's going to be a very active tying winter for me!
